Princess Victoria of Sweden looked elegant in a maxi dress as she stepped out in Stockholm with her husband Prince Daniel.
The royal couple appeared relaxed as they attended the opening of Charlotte Gyllenhammar’s sculpture ‘Unsaid’ at Princess Estelle’s Sculpture Park in the Swedish capital.
And the heir to the Swedish throne, Princess Victoria, 45, made sure her elegant ensemble was fitting for the park environment, donning a frock boasting a floral-style print.
The chic garment, made from a floaty pink fabric, was decorated in a purple motif that appeared similar to small flowers or ferns.
And she kept the look weather appropriate, opting for open-toed pale shoes, which complemented the fresh, Spring look of her dress. She slung a small leather handbag, in a pale purple shade, over her shoulder.

Keeping the look stylish but simple, the royal wore her brunette locks styled into a neat, but unfussy bun.
Her make-up look was fresh, and she opted for a clear, dewy complexion, peach blush, and brown eye shadow.
Victoria’s fresh look was finished with a few classic pieces of jewellery, including drop earrings, silver bangles, and her wedding rings.
Meanwhile, her husband Prince Daniel also looked dapper, opting for a two-piece blue suit for the occasion, with a double breasted blazer.
He paired the classic suit with a crisp white shirt, lighter blue tie, and classic black wingtip-style shoes.
The couple were joined by the sculpture’s creator Charlotte Gyllenhammar, Parisa Liljestrand, Sweden’s minister for Culture, and Sara Sandström Nilsson, the Executive Director, Princess Estelle Cultural Foundation.
The Princess Estelle Cultural Foundation was founded in 2019, as an initiative created by Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel.
According to the organisation, its aim is to ‘promote cultural activities in Sweden’.

Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel officially launched the Princess Estelle’s Cultural Foundation in 2020, opening the first permanent installation, ‘Life Rings’ by Danish-Norwegian partnership Elmgreen and Dragset, the following summer
The sculpture park has been its initial focus so far, with the organisation wanting to make contemporary art available for all, as well as ‘enrich our shared environment’.
Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel announced the launch of the Princess Estelle’s Cultural Foundation in 2020, after establishing it the previous year.
The foundation, which is named after the couple’s daughter Princess Estelle, was unveiled on by the Swedish Royal Family’s official Instagram account.
A statement announcing the launch said: ‘Today, the formation of a new royal foundation is announced: Princess Estelle’s Cultural Foundation.
‘The purpose of the foundation is to promote cultural activities in Sweden.
‘With the initiative, the Crown Princess couple wants to emphasise the importance of art and culture to an open and modern society.
‘The initial focus of the foundation is to continue the temporary sculpture exhibition project at Royal Djurgården during the summer of 2020’, an annual outdoor exhibition that champions Swedish artists.
The announcement added that the foundation’s first project is ‘part of the quest to make contemporary art accessible to a wide audience’.

In June of 2021, Princess Victoria, together with her husband and daughter, opened a permanent installation at Royal Djurgården.
Created by Danish-Norwegian partnership Elmgreen and Dragset, the sculpture is called ‘Life Rings’.
It is made up of a series of interlocking lifebuoys, which project themselves high into the sky, reminding viewers of the importance of strong community ties in challenging times.
Since Danish Michael Elmgreen and Norwegian Ingar Dragset first partnered in 1995, their work has been welcomed with enthusiasm by art insiders and the pair received a special mention at the Venice Biennale.
Amongst the pair’s permanent installations, the most moving is the memorial they created in Berlin to remember the LGBTQ people who suffered at the hands of the Nazis.
